A RESIDENT has been left fuming because a local builder keeps parking on her driveway and refuses to stop.
The disgruntled homeowner took to social media to vent her anger at the selfish parking, while people have responded by saying that she should demand payment for the use of her drive.
The post was uploaded to Mumsnet by user @DuetCokeExtralce, asking for advice on what to do to solve the issue.
Using the driveway without any permission, the builder has apparently been leaving his work car on the driveway with no explanation whatsoever.
The post title reads: 'Builder parking revenge.'
I was left sobbing after being threatened by school-run dad over my car park
They started the post by saying: "On Monday, there was a car we didn't recognise parked on our drive, but we were out and busy, so we didn't think much of it and it was gone by four.
"Yesterday, the car was there again, but we didn't see the person park, so we had no idea who the owner was.
"I checked with our immediate neighbours and they have no idea.
"At about 4 o'clock, my husband was doing some stuff in the garage when the owner (a young guy in overalls) came to the car.
"Husband said, "this is our drive. You can't park here," and he said, "don't worry, I'm going now", and left."
But the man didn't stop.
The Mumsnet user continued: "This morning, the car is there again.
"Luckily, a neighbour saw that he was doing building work a few doors down from us, so I went to the house.
"The owners weren't in, so I stuck my head around their door and asked them to move it.
"He rolled his eyes, took ages packing up something, then moved it onto the road right next to our drive (annoying but whatever)."
I feel guilty about my son's name but he's three so it's too late to change
The Mumsnet user asked others what she should do about it.
"So my question is... if (I think it will) the same happens tomorrow, what do I do?
"My husband is out with the car today but won't be tomorrow, so I could block him in when I get back from the nursery run."
"A friend suggested nails in front of the tyres, but that's a bit much...
"I know it's petty, but if he does it again, I want revenge!"
Other Mumsnet users were quick to comment on the post.
One said: "Block him in and when he wants to leave, don’t answer the door or say your husband has gone out with the keys.
"And speak to the neighbour hiring him about his crappy behaviour."
Another said: "Yeah, speak to the neighbour he's doing the work for.
"Mind you; they may have suggested using your drive as you're usually out during the day."
